- Abstract
- Explains the background to resource sharing as it has developed in Canada. Descrbes the vCuc (virtual Canadian union catalogue pilot project) which is being completed under the umbrella of the national resource sharing strategy. Lists the goals of the project, the main one being to demonstrate the feasibility of using Z39.50 standards to emulate a centralized union catalogue, and the challenge and issues to project gave rise to. Discusses the pros and cons of Z39.50 and the aereas where it needs development and, most importantly, integration into vendor systems
